In 1877, at the age of 18, Kintaro Hattori set up business repairing the Western-style clocks that were becoming increasingly popular in Japan. By 1892, Hattori was manufacturing his own clocks in a factory he called Seikosha, from the words "seiko" meaning "exquisite," "success," or "miniature," and "sha" meaning "house." The company grew and prospered, producing its first wristwatch in 1913 and launching the Seiko brand in 1924. Technological innovation has always been a driving force in the company's history. Key milestones include Seiko's introduction of the world's first quartz watch in 1969, and its successful launch, in 1988, of the Kinetic, the world's first battery-free watch with quartz accuracy. Today, the Seiko brand continues to stand for state-of-the-art technology, as well as superior quality and refined design.

this is an excellent watch, i did my research on a nice watch that did not break the bank and for two weeks i kept coming back to this watch, the more i looked at it the more i liked it and the more i iked it the more i started to want it and start collecting the monster line. The blue one is a super nice one also but so rare you would pay top dollar for one.
Anyways, in conclusion to my experience with this watch is that so far its kept time consistent, i have not noticed any seconds added or slowed so to me seems to be excellent. the weight of it feels good and the size is perfect, not to mention Orange just happens to be one of my favorite colors.
Buy it before the price starts to increase and they are all gone, you will not be disapointed.
About amzon shipping, i ordered it on late Wednesday night, i wanted it as fast as possible so i paid an extra 8 dollars to have it by Friday.

Nice watch, except gains about 1 minute per week which isn't horrible for a self winding watch. This is in the range I expected. Good solid watch at a great price.

Owned this watch since 2006.
This is my Amoured TANK! I use it on road trips where there is a possibility of it being banged around a lot.
I leave my $2000 TAG HEUER watch at home and I use this Seiko watch to the beach, swimming pools, SCUBA diving so far to 90 feet (along with my Dive Computer) and hiking trails and even when doing an oil changes on my car. I have banged it on to rocks on land and coral underwater with minimal to no evidence of damage!!!
It may run fast but at this day and age one depends on the Dive Computer rather than the olden days using the bezel on this watch and Dive table to calculate dive time. So up-to-the-second accuracy is not paramount.
This is a heavy watch so if your wrists aren't used to heavy items then do not get this watch.. .
Otherwise *machomen* will not have any regrets wearing this watch... 8-)
Mine is GREAT! July 15, 2010

Usually these run fast, sometimes VERY fast, but mine is great. It will lose about 5-10 seconds during the day & gain about 5-10 seconds at night. So... I'm always within 5-7 seconds at any given time. NOT the norm for a SEIKO.
